Sony patents are a little bit of a humorous side of Sony’s actions to trace. On one hand, they will typically be a peak into the way forward for Sony and the expertise its growing. On the opposite, lots of the concepts and ideas that get patented simply sound loopy, and by no means truly occur.
The newest patent (noticed by Tech4gamers) to hit the wire falls a bit into each classes. It lays out a way by which Sony would use AI to foretell your inputs whilst you’re enjoying a recreation, in order that the AI may press the button you’re going to press subsequent for you, so to talk, in order that the motion can nonetheless occur even whenever you is perhaps experiencing points along with your console, which might in any other case trigger your recreation to lag, and the enter be missed.
AI is already in every single place in video games. PlayStation’s Spectral Tremendous Decision (PSSR) is an upscaling answer that makes use of AI to foretell the following body primarily based on the sport data it’s collected, in an effort to get pleasure from a smoother framerate, and it’s solely the newest upscaling answer available on the market.
This patent appears like an evolution of that, from predicting frames to predicting participant inputs. “In a single explicit instance, the strategy could embody offering digital camera enter as an enter to a machine studying (ML) mannequin. The digital camera enter could point out the primary person command,” the patent’s abstract reads.
Will this patent truly make it off this sheet and into the following PlayStation console? Who can actually say at this level. It’s a guessing recreation on the subject of most of Sony’s patents, but it surely does present how Sony is making an attempt to think about completely different makes use of for AI going ahead.
